Crossfire

Elena's POV

"When were you going to tell me?" Jackson blurted out.

"Now. Right now! I was coming up here to tell you now."

"I'm supposed to believe that?"

Standing in the now empty room without Arizona, I had to confront him.

"Yes! I can't believe that Arizona would say that? I didn't even tell her?"

"When did you know? How far along are you, Elena?" He yelled.

"I'm 17 weeks," I whispered

"17 weeks! Are you kidding me? That means..." 

Staring at the middle of his chest, I could feel his eyes burn into my skin.

"I was coming to tell you-"

"When did you know? Before or after the attack? When our baby could've died?"

Answering my pager I look down at my phone, and see that Hunt is calling for me.

"Uh..."

"Elena?"

"I..Yes. The day of the attack I knew, and I was going to tell you but then it happened, okay? I was two weeks, and then for the rest of those 6 weeks I couldn't speak, so?"

"Why? Why would you do-"

Answering another page, I hesitate to look up at him.

"I have to...I have to go."

"No, you don't."

"I am. I'm being paged to the E.R."

"So give it to Grey or Hunt or literally anybody,  but you're not gonna walk away from this right now."

"I can't! I want to talk about this, Jackson. I do. But now is not a good time."

"Don't you walk away." He hissed.

"I can not talk about this right now."

 Opening the door to the hallway, I hurried down to the E.R. and practically threw my things under the front desk before putting on a yellow gown.

"Blake, activate the MTP," I ordered as I came inside.

"We're gonna need blood, lots of it."

"On it."

"All right, patient's 10 minutes out, people. Let's move."

Fixing the lights above the metal bed, I head over to the back door just when Arizona comes in.  

"Elena, I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry. I thought that I was-"

"I really don't give a crap what you thought."

"Listen, I was with you before. I lived through that with Jackson and April. I was just trying to help somehow so that maybe this time it could be different."

"Sorry, you were there? Did you live through that? I operated on April, I was the one that told them that their baby was going to die. They blame me Robbins, not you. Me."

"The three of us live through that nightmare, and I refuse to live it again. And you know what? It is different this time because this time I know that my baby is going to be healthy. Just like Theo." I hissed as Riggs stood behind me putting on his gown.

"Shepherd. Let's go."

"Who told you, huh? Alex? Because I'm sure as hell I didn't ask him to tell anybody else!"
